- Summarize your assessment and goals in a blog post in your learning journal.
I am at Level 3 or the NCSSFL-ACTFL's equivalent intermediate low-intermediate mid. I took Bahasa Indonesia (level 2) at the University of Melbourne last semester, and I received a grade equivalent to a later "A" grade here.
I will briefly describe some of the larger goals I have for myself this semester with regard to learning the language. My strategy and structure for learning and the scope of the content mirrors my Indonesian language class at the University of Melbourne. I did quite well in the class, and more importantly, I learned a great deal. So, my learning content will be sourced from the same book, and my weekly strategy for learning the material will be similar to that in my language class. I will spend four hours a week covering a chapter and a half (there are ten chapters in total). There will be no homework outside of those four hours -- except for studying for an exam or completing a weekly artifact.
Indonesian Grammar In Context is a fantastic book, and, besides its focus on grammar, it delves deeply into Indonesian culture.
